Abstract

Group family relationship among girls in correctional institutions seem to grow up as a natural substitute for the family group which the institutional mechanism cannot supply. These relationships constitute a complete family outline. They rest on a natural psychological and physiological basis. In addition to the more permanent, stable families, which are woven through all the cottages, are secondary families in single cottages which exist for only short periods. When considered in light of other types of relationships among girls-individual homosexuality (Lesbianism and pseudohomosexuality) and friendship-the pseudo-family relationship is seen to be a non-pathological example of relationship between the two sexes.
